Flying watch: an attachable strength enhancement device for long-reach robotic arms

Abstract A long-reach robotic arm is useful for applications such as nuclear plant decommissioning, inspection, and firefighting. However, for such arms, a small external reaction force can result in large loads on proximal arm actuators because of long moment arms. This problem was previously solve...
